Architectural, Increased requirements
In schools in particular, gymnasiums are often fitted with ball-proof equipment to prevent damage from flying balls and to protect the facilities.
When equipping this school in the Ländle region, the architect clearly wanted to design an emergency sign that was both ball-proof and attractive.
A STRING ARC emergency sign luminaire was installed with a Plexiglas cover, flush with the wall and rimless to prevent balls from being thrown. The approval and implementation of the project proved to be time-consuming, as the sampling went through several instances before it could finally be approved and realised. Since then, nobody in this gymnasium has had to worry about damaging anything in the event of a sharp shot – at least not the emergency lighting.
Revitalisation
As the technology in the entire building was outdated, a comprehensive modernisation was required. The focus was on energy-efficient solutions to reduce energy consumption and promote sustainability.
Architectural
In order to be able to withstand the overall architectural concept, the architects expressed the wish for escape signs that were flush with the wall and completely borderless.
